  • Patent number: 10068577
    Abstract: A method of encoding adaptive audio, comprising receiving N objects and associated spatial metadata that describes the continuing motion of these objects, and partitioning the audio into segments based on the spatial metadata. The method encodes adaptive audio having objects and channel beds by capturing a continuing motion of a number N objects in a time-varying matrix trajectory comprising a sequence of matrices, coding coefficients of the time-varying matrix trajectory in spatial metadata to be transmitted via a high-definition audio format for rendering the adaptive audio through a number M output channels, and segmenting the sequence of matrices into a plurality of sub-segments based on the spatial metadata, wherein the plurality of sub-segments are configured to facilitate coding of one or more characteristics of the adaptive audio.
